Apple's next release is generating a lot of hype, and a lot of it is due to the Leaks about the iPhone 17 Pro, which already offer a fairly clear picture of the major changes the brand's new flagship model could bring. Although official confirmation is still pending, information from reliable sources provides a fairly accurate idea of what's to come.
Among the new features that are attracting the most attention is the return of aluminum as the main material for the chassis, instead of the titanium that had been established in previous generations. In addition, a renewed color palette is expected, with orange as the protagonist and a possible replacement for the classic sober tones that characterized the Pro models.
A completely renewed design and a break with tradition
According to the images leaked by Majin Buu, the iPhone 17 Pro will bet on more vivid and striking colorsOf particular note is the intense orange, already nicknamed "butane orange," which has never been seen before in the Pro line. Along with it, we expect a dark blue, a space gray reminiscent of past generations, and the traditional white or silver; however, black may not be present this time.
But the big change lies in the new camera module, which would no longer be located in a corner but would cover practically the entire upper rear part in a horizontal position. The leaked images show full skid plates which make clear the aesthetic change, and which would fit with the Pantone codes known until now.
This redesign not only affects the appearance: in addition, Apple will take advantage of the opportunity to improve internal modularity, allowing for easier exchange of components such as the battery, facilitating its repair and maintenance.
Materials, colors and differences compared to the past
In this generation, everything points to the fact that Aluminum will be the reference material for the Pro models, while the Air variant would opt for titanium. The recent trend of reserving the best finish for the most expensive models is breaking, allowing Aluminum offers a greater variety of tones and reduced weight.
El orange It is presented as the main new color scheme, traditionally reserved for entry-level models or more fun versions. In addition, dark blue and titanium gray complete the offering, providing both sober and avant-garde options.
This variety seeks to appeal to a more diverse audience, from those who prefer elegance and distinction to those who want to stand out with a more striking design.
Technical innovations: display, cameras, and improved cooling
As for technology, rumors agree that the iPhone 17 Pro will feature a 6,3-inch LTPO display, with adaptive 120Hz ProMotion technology for a fluid visual experience. One of the new features will be the introduction of an anti-reflective coating, similar to the one used in the latest iPad Pro, which will significantly reduce reflections and scratches on the panel, a feature exclusive to the Pro and Pro Max models for now.
Regarding the camera, there will not only be an exterior redesign. The three rear sensors are expected to reach the 48 megapixels each, including a new telephoto lens that would offer 5x optical zoom and support for dual video recording. It will also feature a 24MP front-facing camera for higher-quality selfies and video calls. Rumors also indicate the possible addition of mechanical opening system on the camera, which would provide greater control when taking photos.
One of the most notable advances is the adoption of a vapor chamber cooling system, designed to improve heat dissipation and maintain performance in demanding tasks such as gaming, video editing, or artificial intelligence. This system would take advantage of the chassis structure to distribute heat more efficiently.
Renewed power and cutting-edge connectivity
Internally, the iPhone 17 Pro would be powered by the new 19nm A3 Pro chip, developed by TSMC, accompanied by 12GB of RAM and storage options ranging from 128GB to 1TB. It would also integrate the C2 chip for Bluetooth and support for Wi-Fi 7, ensuring the most advanced wireless technologies.
The pre-installed operating system would be iOS 19, which would include new features such as smart battery saving mode and advanced artificial intelligence features thanks to Apple Intelligence.

In the battery section, the Pro models would bet on batteries easier to replace and fast charging systems of up to 35W wired and 25W wireless, improving the charging experience.
